Great book and awesome narration..

Another great romance from Collette Cameron. I just loved all the “B’s”: Blythe, Brooke, Brette, Blaire and Blaike. And I loved the other players: Tristan, Raven, Whitehouse, Maddox, Francine and Hawk. I despised Burlington, Rosemary Sanford and Phillips, who got exactly what he deserved, but it would have been better if he’d died.

What little was told about why Tristan could be so cold and unfeeling was pretty awful, it just showed what a truly horrible his father was. BUT as he drew closer to Blythe the more his walls came down. This really was a very good love story but also a story showing just how depraved men could be way back then and how the “ton” were never held accountable for their wicked deeds.

There was no sex but there was love and affection and passion. You don’t need sex when you have all that. At least, I don’t.

As to the narration: Again, Stevie Zimmerman was fantastic. Her male voices are wonderful and her emotions are fabulous. I love listening to her.

Cute but not at all cutsie!

Film flam and goose feathers! Is the first line of this book. It’s worth a read or listen just for the exclamations! Humorous expletives asides, this is a good regency tale. It hits every requirement and does it in a clever way. It’s essentially clean.

Stevie Zimmerman is an automatic buy as far as narrators in this genre. There aren’t many any better, if any!

Love this author!

I can't wait to read all of her books. I love her writing style and authenticity!

Great writer & performer.

Wonderful romantic escape without explicit sex and a delightful listen performed by a gifted narrator skilled with distinctive voices.

Schemes

Heath, Earl of Ravensdale, has brought his wife and the Misses Culpepper to London for the Season. Raven has asked some friends, including Hawksworth and Leventhorpe to help him introduce and keep an eye on the ladies. Unlike the twins and Brette, Blythe is not really excited about the whole venture. She wants to go home to the country. She now has to learn to successfully deal with the Ton, Society’s rules, snobby debutantes, questionable suitors, and the very handsome and grumpy Triston, Lord Leventhorpe. Truth is, Tristan doesn’t want to be here either. Old secrets and old enemies plague him.

This story is emotional and relatable. Learning to cope with bad experiences in the past and trying to adapt to new places and experiences is something a lot of us have in common with Tristan and Blythe. There are schemes afoot and some tense moments (here is where Blythe’s conundrum comes in). There are also some heartwarming surprises. I love the characters in this story and the series. Stevie Zimmerman does a great job with the voices in this one, bringing the characters to life and pulling the reader into the story. She gives Mr. Phillips a voice that leaves no doubt about his character (she does sleeze really well). And…speaking of Phillips, he ends up as a perfect example of consequences befitting the crime. Justice is served! This is a delightful story with great characters. I enjoyed it.

Delightful story in the series

While I've not read all of the books in this series yet, I enjoyed listening to this one and I'm curious enough to know the other sisters stories that I'll be buying their books. The story line has all sorts of twists and turns on the way to a happy ending for Tristan and Blythe. I enjoyed listening to their story.

Wonderful romance

The Marquis and The Vixen was originally entitled Blythe: Schemes Gone Amiss. This is book two in the Conundrums of the Misses Culpepper Collection by Collette Cameron. I have thoroughly enjoyed this audible book. Stevie Zimmerman does a fabulous job bringing Cameron’s characters to life. Blythe Culpepper is taken to London to have her season among the Ton. But her guardian’s close friend Lord Leventhorpe is to act as a chaperone, and Blythe detests him. This is a classic enemy to lovers trope that I adore. Lord Leventhorpe is a quiet man and greatly misunderstood. But he and Blythe don’t mix, and they seem to bring out the worst in each other. “Looming several inches above her, Lord Leventhorpe’s chest - a thick, wide wall of irile maleness - blocked her view. Tempted to shift away, she forced her feet to stay planted. He was the largest man she’d ever met, and as one of Heath’s closest friends, she must learn to tolerate Lord Leventhorpe’s intimidating presence. Surely sainthood and a seat at the Lord’s Table awaited her if she managed the Herculean task. The auburn-haired devil enjoyed provoking her, and like a nincompoop, she regularly succumbed to his goading.”
Cameron infuses a healthy dose of humor in her romances and this one is no exception. Always a fan of Ms. Cameron’s work.

kept me on my toes

This book kept me on my toes and it never let down. I could not stop and wanted to keep going. The Culpepper family is one exciting and intense bunch. This did not disappoint! I would definitely recommend!

Great story

i love the Misses Culpeppers. They are not afraid to be themselves. Glad Blythe gave everyone what they deserved including her happy ending.
